Game thread LI: Astros at Royals

The worst team in baseball will take on the division-leading Astros this afternoon. Chances are that it will be a bloodbath. But at least there are a couple of interesting situations to keep an eye on.

  • Kris Bubic has returned from the minors and rejoined the rotation. The 24-year-old lefty was demoted after acquiring a 12.83 ERA in five starts and one relief appearance that totaled only 13.1 innings. Yikes. In his first time pitching at any level between single-A ball and the big leagues he made three starts with a 6.59 ERA in 13.2 innings.
